Both terms are conceptualised home and during the course will be sought for both their definition and relationship. Media described by right hand, making it the central issue, which will bring new impetus to the question of objectivity. The course offers a de facto drama - in eight acts with prelude and sequel - the relationship of language and the world and "what we say / what we speak" and "what is" or, if you like, grammar and ontology. It could carry a subtitle Selected topics in philosophy of language, since the axis seminar program more or less follows the historical development of the issue, the scope was narrowed in the interest of consistency on the tradition of analysis - but the angle on seminars. In the course of fire will be noted as well as links, different and common themes and solutions with other traditions, especially structuralist, phenomenological and hermeneutic.
